Ur-Energy Announces Q3 2025 Results; Construction Advances at
Shirley Basin and Exploration Underway in the Great Divide Basin
LITTLETON, CO / November 3, 2025 / Ur-Energy Inc. (NYSE American:URG)(TSX:URE)
(the "Company" or "Ur-Energy") has filed the Company's Form 10-Q for the quarter ended
September 30, 2025, with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
at www.sec.gov/edgar.shtml and with Canadian securities authorities at www.sedarplus.ca.
Third Quarter 2025 Financial and Operating Results
▪ The ramp up at Lost Creek continued with 93,523 pounds of U3O8 dried and packaged.
▪ Ur-Energy sold 110,000 pounds of U3O8 during the quarter, at an average price of $57.48
per pound, generating revenue of $6.3 million.
▪ Uranium sold in Q3 2025 was sourced from previously purchased inventories. Ur-Energy
currently has sufficient produced inventory on hand to meet its remaining 2025 sales
obligation of 165,000 pounds.
▪ Q3 2025 cash costs per pound of produced inventory remained consistent with Q2,
decreasing slightly from $43.61 in Q2 2025 to $43.00 in Q3 2025.
▪ Shirley Basin's professional and operational teams are fully staffed, and site construction
is well advanced. Wellfield and plant development remain on track for uranium
production startup in Q1 2026.
▪ As of September 30, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $52.0 million, a decrease
of approximately $24.1 million from the $76.1 million balance on December 31, 2024.
Cash position as of October 30, 2025, was $35.4 million.
Ur-Energy President, Matthew Gili, commented: "The continued ramp-up and plant
optimization at Lost Creek, together with the advanced construction status at Shirley Basin,
position Ur-Energy to capitalize on the resurgence of both the U.S. and global nuclear power
industry, illustrated by the recently announced U.S. government's $80 billion investment to build
new nuclear reactors in the United States."
Lost Creek Operations
We dried and packaged 93,523 pounds and shipped 70,190 pounds to the conversion facility in
Q3. As of September 30, 2025, we held 278,150 pounds of U₃O₈ at the conversion facility.
Subsequent to quarter end, we shipped an additional 69,604 pounds to the conversion facility and
purchased 100,000 pounds, after which we will have 447,754 pounds in finished inventory at the
conversion facility.
Four header houses have been brought online this year in Lost Creek's second mine unit
("MU2"). Production flow for the third quarter averaged approximately 2,100 gpm from MU2
production areas. The flow was controlled at a lower rate to optimize MU2 production by
removing solids incidental to production that had accumulated in the main pipeline. That
maintenance, primarily occurring during September and October, is substantially complete and
preparations are underway to continue increasing flow rates from MU2 commensurate with
production needs. Production grade for the quarter averaged 66 ppm, reflecting the controlled
flow rates during maintenance. Year-to-date, the average production grade remains at
approximately 58 ppm.
Development continues in MU1 Phase 2, where well installations are substantially complete in
four of the ten header houses. Surface construction is advancing, with the first header house for
Phase 2 in commissioning. Three header houses have been delivered to Lost Creek, and two
more are being prepared at our Casper construction shop.
Successful production operations depend upon strong safety programs and consistently good
safety records. Our safety program and culture both continue to improve at Lost Creek and with
our staff at Shirley Basin. We are pleased to see continued and sustained safety improvements
and will remain focused on safety and compliance throughout our operations.
Our total sales in 2025 are projected at 440,000 pounds of U3O8 at an average price per pound
sold of $61.77 and we expect to realize revenues of $27.2 million. The sales are a result of
contracts negotiated in 2022 and 2023, when the long-term price was between $43 and $57 per
pound. Deliveries of 165,000 pounds and 110,000 pounds were made in Q2 and Q3, respectively.
A delivery of 165,000 pounds at an average price of $63.20 is expected to be made in Q4 2025
from produced inventory.
Shirley Basin: Fully Staffed and Advancing Toward Uranium Production
Construction activities are ongoing and gaining momentum at our fully permitted Shirley Basin
ISR Project. Construction of the foundation for the processing building began in early August
and we have poured nearly 900 of the required 1,100 total cubic yards of concrete. The internal
foundation of the processing building is substantially complete. 11 ion exchange columns were
delivered to Shirley Basin in September, and two have been placed on the internal foundation.
As previously disclosed, Shirley Basin construction milestones include road upgrades,
completion of 125 monitor wells and groundwater work, power installation to the site, and setup
of communications, security, and septic systems. We also refurbished the warehouse, and
construction and maintenance bays, including the installation of modular offices.
The metal building components of the plant facility have been delivered to the project site. The
general contractor is preparing for pre-assembly while also continuing to prepare for offsite
fabrication and procurement of steel piping, supports, and catwalks.
The 10,000 square-foot Shirley Basin modular office is now fully operational, with all
management and professional personnel onsite leading wellfield construction and development.
The Shirley Basin team is working closely with our Casper-based professionals to advance all
aspects of construction in preparation for production. We have also added contracted project
management expertise to enhance coordination and ensure we meet schedule and quality
objectives as we progress toward the anticipated Q1 2026 startup and commissioning.
We have hired all operational staff, including our maintenance and wellfield services teams.
Training of all staff is progressing, with operations staff expected to receive hands-on experience
at Lost Creek along with additional training during satellite plant construction at Shirley Basin.

One of the two evaporation ponds is constructed, with the second pond nearing completion. Once
both are fully constructed, work will commence on the installation of liners and technical
components.
Installation of production and injection wells in Shirley Basin Mine Unit 1 is progressing, with
drilling and completion of wells for the first header house finished and work on the next two is
advancing. All monitor wells have been installed and sampled. The first header house has been
fabricated in Casper and fabrication of the second is underway. Onsite construction and main
pipeline installation continue, with trenching complete through the seventh header house and
piping past the third.
Third Quarter 2025 Great Divide Basin Exploration Activities
During the third quarter, we initiated exploration programs in the Great Divide Basin ("GDB")
on our Lost Soldier Project, located less than 10 miles northeast of the Lost Creek ISR Mine. The
work at Lost Soldier included the installation of 18 aquifer test wells designed to enhance our
understanding of the local hydrogeology. While the geology of the project area is well
understood and supported by data from more than 4,000 historical drillholes, this additional
hydrogeologic characterization will assist our technical teams in optimizing potential future mine
planning, permitting, and development activities.
Due to the proximity of our operating Lost Creek ISR facility, Lost Soldier has the potential to be
developed as a satellite operation. If exploration work is successful, we will evaluate the
potential to advance Lost Soldier through the FAST-41 permitting process, a federal framework
designed to streamline and improve coordination among agencies for large-scale infrastructure
and energy projects.

As the work at Lost Soldier concludes, drill rigs will move to the North Hadsell Project for a 50-
hole drill program. Next, we will move to our third exploration program in the GDB at LC
South, where we anticipate commencing a 120-drillhole program in Q1 2026. The goal of our
GDB exploration programs is to identify additional uranium roll fronts and potentially expand
the Company's uranium resource base in Wyoming's prolific Great Divide Basin.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information
This release may contain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of applicable
securities laws regarding events or conditions that may occur in the future (e.g., timing to
complete our ramp-up to steady state full production levels at Lost Creek, including whether
MU1 Phase 2 comes online as scheduled, wellfield flow rates increase as anticipated, and efforts
to optimize plant production are successful; our ability to complete build out of Shirley Basin as
currently projected and budgeted; whether our safety program and record will continue to see
sustained improvements and whether compliant operations can be maintained; the ability to
capitalize on the resurgence of the nuclear industry; the results of our 2025 exploration program
in the Great Divide Basin; and whether we will advance Lost Soldier and on what timeline, and
permitting program) and are based on current expectations that, while considered reasonable by
management at this time, inherently involve a number of significant business, economic and
competitive risks, uncertainties and contingencies. Generally, forward-looking statements can be
identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "plans," "expects," "does not
